Extended Data Fig. 7: Recovery time for the sensitivity to revert to its pre-disturbance level.

(a) A schematic to illustrate the definition of recovery time, where each circle means the sensitivity in an eight-year moving window, and the red dotted line indicates the identified recovery time (that is 5 years post-disturbance). (b–c) The distribution of recovery time derived from pixels with long post-distrubance time for severe (b) droughts and (c) fires. Pixels never recovered (gray color; ∼30% of pixels) are removed when calculating the mean recovery time. The resolution of the distribution map for fire was aggregated to 20 km for visual display.
